Update

Just an update:
This last weekend was spent in Northern Michigan visiting with family and friends. This is definately NOT the appropriate forum to be detailing all of the nuances of the trip, but be assured, it was not boring. Considering the weather was spectacular, it was worth the drive. Normally when I visit, the weather is unseasonably cold, overcast, and bleak. Not so this time... Nice sunny weather with temps in the 70's.
I see this afternoon that there's a new Pope. I guess he's decided to be called Benedict. Although I'm not Catholic, I guess this is good news. I just wonder about the guy's age, though. I mean, the possibility exists that they'll end up having to re-elect shortly given his geriatric status.
